I've always said that this "top" list would be way more interesting if the current counts of a game when the list is reset is used as a "drawback" for the next session. (Meaning the "top" voted muds will need to work harder to keep their status every month.)

At the moment it is just silly, nor is it an indication in ANY way how good a mud is, evidently. It is simply an advertisement list for the games that already have a large playerbase, which is in my opinion bad for the mud community (a free list should promote the smaller games that can't afford fancy banners all over the place). Now, i dont have anything against commercial games as im currently working on one, but still, i think the free games should have a chance to get advertisement.
